- Paramedic Jeremy Williams was resuscitating Daisy Devane when he collapsed
A paramedic who suffered a heart attack during a 999 call has been reunited with the woman he treated for the same emergency.
Jeremy Williams was assisting with CPR on Daisy Devane in June 2022 when he too collapsed.
Both survived when other 999 crew members came to help, and they have now been reunited to highlight the importance of learning CPR.
Mrs Devane, now 33, from Stewartby, Bedfordshire, was kept alive by her boyfriend, now husband, Eammon, after she collapsed.
As a first aid teacher, she had taught him chest compressions, which he did while they waited for paramedics.

However, ten minutes after arriving, Mr Williams, 55, suffered a heart attack himself.
He had two stents fitted in hospital and came home to find Mrs Devane had also survived.
She spent 33 days in the hospital and was given an implantable defibrillator called an S-ICD, which shocks her heart if she has another seizure.
“It was great to meet Jeremy again,” Ms Devane said.
“It was fun to sit down and talk with him as we shared this huge life event.”
